What is the 2026 going rate for one of Tom’s A-bolts?
I’ll take a whack at pricing. I sold a 2nd gen A-bolt for $2900 the 1st day posted on GunBroken a while back and it’s been the high water mark.

I bought my large magwell .380 specifically to convert it to 9mm so I bought one of the final A-bolts for $2400 about a year ago. No regrets at all paying that.

Since then I’ve seen 2nd gen A-bolts struggle to bring $1800 but I think that’s the market downturn in general. Machinegun prices in general have been stagnant and in some cases softening slightly over the last 18 months.

So right now $1800 - $2400 if you find one.

Well I finally had a chance to get the m11 380 small mag well gun running with my heavy bolt. I had to machine a bit off of the bottom to clear my feed lips but its running like a sewing machine now. Definitely the best money I've ever spent on an accessory. This is what the Ingram m11 should have been.

Now get a Lage Versa for it and tell us again that the tungsten is the best accessory. I bet you don't.

I leave my M11/9 with the versa on it all the time.

I also have the small mag M11 and that gets the tungsten bolt because I like the tiny size of it.
